Ricciardo had his sights set on Sergio Perez’s seat at Red Bull but he simply has not been up to scratch at RB

RB driver Daniel Ricciardo has expressed his desire to compete in NASCAR, MotoGP, and the Bathurst 12 Hour endurance race after retiring from Formula 1. His remarks come amid growing speculation about his potential departure from the team.

After losing his McLaren seat at the end of 2022, eight-time grand prix winner Ricciardo returned to F1 midway through 2023 with Red Bull’s sister team, AlphaTauri, now known as RB. He quickly set his sights on returning to the senior Red Bull team, where he raced between 2014 and 2018.
